Cabinet structure

ABSTRACT

A cabinet structure includes a base member having four corner portions; 
     two post members respectively assembled at two corner portions which are located at one side of the base member; and a support member assembled at an opposite side of the base member, the support member having a support plate and two support laterals, the two support laterals respectively formed at two vertical sides of the support plate, the support plate and the two support laterals formed as one piece, the support plate and the two support laterals defining an extending direction parallel to the base member, the extending direction being bent, the two support laterals assembled at the other two corner portions.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a cabinet, and more particularly to acabinet structure.

2. Description of the Prior Art

Referring to FIG. 6, a conventional cabinet structure comprises a basemember 4. Four post members 41 are respectively vertically assembled atfour corners of the base member 4. A side plate is assembled betweeneach two adjacent post members 41. Therefore, a whole cabinet is formed.

However, if any of the four post members 41 is vertically projected onthe base member 4, the projected image is a zero dimension image so thata connecting area between each post member 41 and the base member 4 istoo narrow to make each post member 41 firmly assembled. In other words,each post member 41 would be undesirably swung by an outside force, sothat the structure of the whole cabinet would be deformed if sufferingthe outside force.

The present invention is, therefore, arisen to obviate or at leastmitigate the above mentioned disadvantages.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

An object of the present invention is to provide an improved cabinetstructure which wouldn't be deformed even if suffering the outsideforce.

To achieve the above and other objects, an cabinet structure comprises abase member having four corner portions; two post members respectivelyassembled at two corner portions which are located at one side of thebase member; and a support member assembled at an opposite side of thebase member, the support member having a support plate and two supportlaterals, the two support laterals respectively formed at two verticalsides of the support plate, the support plate and the two supportlaterals formed as one piece, the support plate and the two supportlaterals defining an extending direction parallel to the base member,the extending direction being bent, the two support laterals assembledat the other two corner portions.

Wherein, each support lateral has a connecting portion and a positioningportion; the connecting portion and the positioning portion areconnected to each other; one side of the connecting portion is connectedto the support plate; the positioning portion and the support plate arenot aligned with each other; a spacing portion is connected between theconnecting portion and the positioning portion; the positioning portionhas an assembling portion assembled thereon; the assembling portion isconfigured to assemble a side plate on the base member; the connectingportion is illustrated as an arc portion; connecting portion isillustrated as a flat portion; the positioning portion and the supportplate are not aligned with each other; the support plate has a concaveportion formed thereon; the concave portion is concaved on an outsidesurface of the support plate.

The present invention will become more obvious from the followingdescription when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings,which show, for purpose of illustrations only, the preferredembodiment(s) in accordance with the present invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Referring to FIG. 1, a first embodiment in accordance with the presentinvention is described as follows. A cabinet structure comprises a basemember 1, two post members 2 and a support member 3. The base member 1has four corner portions C. The two post members 2 are respectivelyassembled at two corner portions C which are located at one side of thebase member 1. The support member 3 is assembled at an opposite side ofthe base member 1. Referring to FIG. 2, the support member 3 has asupport plate 31 and two support laterals 32. The two support laterals32 are respectively formed at two vertical sides of the support plate31. The support plate 31 and the two support laterals 32 are formed asone piece. The support plate 31 and the two support laterals 32 definean extending direction parallel to the base member 1. The extendingdirection is bent. In other words, if the support member 3 is verticallyprojected on the base member 1, the projected image is a two-D image.Therefore, the support plate 31 would be firmly on the base member 1 viathe two support laterals 32, so as to make the support member 3vertically assembled on the base member 1. Moreover, the two supportlaterals 32 would also be firmly assembled on the base member 1 becauseof the support plate 31 therebetween. In other words, the two supportlaterals 32 wouldn't be undesirably swung by an outside force, so thatthe structure of the whole cabinet wouldn't be deformed even ifsuffering the outside force.

Referring to FIG. 3, each support lateral 32 has a connecting portion321A and a positioning portion 322. The connecting portion 321A and thepositioning portion 322 are connected to each other. The positioningportion 322 has an assembling portion 323 assembled thereon. Theassembling portion 323 is configured to assemble a side plate on thebase member 1 (as shown in FIG. 1). Specially, a spacing portion 324 isconnected between the connecting portion 321A and the positioningportion 322. The connecting portion 321A is illustrated as an arcportion in this embodiment. One side of the connecting portion 321A isconnected to the support plate 31. Another side of the connectingportion 321A is connected to the spacing portion 324. The spacingportion 324 and the positioning portion 322 are perpendicular to eachother. Therefore, the positioning portion 322 and the support plate 31are not aligned with each other.

The two post members 2 are both vertically assembled on the base member1. Consequently, if either of the two post members 2 is verticallyprojected on the base member 1, the projected image is a zero dimensionimage.

Referring to FIGS. 4-5, a second embodiment in accordance with thepresent invention is described as follows (only the differences betweenthe first and second embodiments would be described herein). Aconnecting portion 321B of each support lateral 32 is illustrated as aflat portion. The positioning portion 322 and the support plate 31 arenot aligned with each other. An angle is defined between the connectingportion 321B and the support plate 31. An angle is defined between theconnecting portion 321B and spacing portion 324. Therefore, thepositioning portion 322, the connecting portion 321B and the supportplate 31 are not aligned with one another.

Furthermore, the support plate 31 has a concave portion 311 formedthereon. The concave portion 311 is configured to reinforce thestructure of the whole support plate 31. The concave portion 311 isconcaved on an outside surface of the support plate 31.

All in all, the support plate 31 would be firmly on the base member 1via the two support laterals 32, so as to make the support member 3vertically assembled on the base member 1. Moreover, the two supportlaterals 32 would also be firmly assembled on the base member 1 becauseof the support plate 31 therebetween. In other words, the two supportlaterals 32 wouldn't be undesirably swung by an outside force, so thatthe structure of the whole cabinet wouldn't be deformed even ifsuffering the outside force.

Although particular embodiments of the invention have been described indetail for purposes of illustration, various modifications andenhancements may be made without departing from the spirit and scope ofthe invention. Accordingly, the invention is not to be limited except asby the appended claims.
